Following the initial announcement of the track, fans began dissecting the teaser before concluding that her partner on the duet would be none other than former One Direction singer Zayn Malik.
Zayn also recently alluded to new music coming out “soon with another cool collaborator”, which fuelled fans’ speculation that he would be teaming up with the BLACKPINK member ahead of its confirmation. The song’s announcement also comes after the former One Direction star took his daughter to BLACKPINK’s New York gig back in July.
‘Eyes Closed’ will serve as Jisoo’s first new material outside of BLACKPINK since releasing her ‘Amortage’ mini-album earlier this February.
‘Amortage’ scored a four-star review from NME upon its release earlier this year, with Crystal Bell writing: “There’s always been an enigmatic quality to Jisoo, a sense that she keeps something just out of reach. On ‘Amortage’, she steps forward, but never too close, embracing pop’s timeless pleasures – melody, emotion and a touch of mischief – with quiet self-assurance. It’s not a reinvention, nor does it need to be. Instead, ‘Amortage’ plays to Jisoo’s strengths, proving that evolution doesn’t always have to be explosive to shake things up.”
